Tasting Notes 

It presents an intense bright red color. The nose is very elegant and delicate with aromas of jams and red fruits such as plums and sour cherries. We also find subtle herbaceous and spicy notes that combine with mineral notes such as graphite and gunpowder. The wood provides aromas of chocolate smoke and tobacco achieving a very good assembly. In the mouth it is intense and complex of long persistence with sweet and round tannins that fill our mouth with flavors, aromas and pleasant textures
